Siuslaw and Ooquille.

One of the fishermen found &
shark seven feet long in his net
near the hay barn at North Bend
last week. The fish did consider.
able damage to the net.
1t is reported that the English
Flag Packing company is getting
about l,200 fish per day on the
Coquille and that about z, 800 fish
per day are captured in that
stream.
Last Thursday Bcrgman's can:
merry, on the Siuslaw, took 800 fish,
and the other two canneries on
the river captured about an equal
number each, making 900 in one
day.
Marshall's cannery has been re.
ceiving about 500 fish per day and
has put up about $500 cases. A
shipment of 1000 cases was made
on the Arcata. The silver salmon
are now beginning to come in and
a big run is looked for. Three
boats Friday night caught $50. A
net with smaller meshes than those
used for the larger fish will be en-
ployed.-COdst Mail.

The Fish Commissioners.

State fish commissioners Thomp-
son and Campbell left yesterday
afternoon for the salmon hatchery
on the Clackamas river. The for
mer said the dam there had been
injured somewhat and will need
repairs, but nevertheless there is
considerable water. Last Thurs
day there were 100000 eggs in the
hatchery and additions are being
made at the rste OF $4,000 to 50,-
900 a day.
Commissioner Thompson has
just returned from Yaquina bay,
where, with state representate
Pomeroy, who is a member of a
special committee on fisheries, he
attempted to ascertain the wants OF
the people in the fish line. Rain
fell necessarily while they were
there and they were unable to ac-
complish their object. This trip
finishes all the visiting to be done
this season, but nextyear Yaquina,
Coos bay, Tillamook, Alsea and
Coquille will be investigated. Mr..
Thompson says Yaquina river is a
small stream and if the people de-
sire to protect their fish they had
better begin at once. The out
come of all this labor will be fish
bill, to be presented to the next
legislature for passage. 1t will
apply to the entire state and be
much stronger than the present
law.-Neaos, 3,

What They Say Over the Water.

LONDON, Oct. 2.--The papers
yesterday all had long editorials on
the Volunteers victory Friday.
The Telegraph says: 1--WE are
whipped. The Volunteer has, for
the second time, beat the Thistle
and that cup which it was hoped
and prayed by every Briton that
she would recover must now re-
main in the United States"
The Chronicle regards the de-
feat as conclusive and remarks that
the defeat must be accepted with
good grace.
The Sportsman looks on the
result as a defeat of the most de-
cisive character, and adds: at
has now been demonstrated that
the type of yachts built on the
American side are much swifter
than those constructed in Great
Britain"
The Daily Ne,cs concludes q
generous article with this sentence
awe adhere to our opinion that
England has to learn a lesson from
America in this branch Of ship
building and we had better sci
about learning at once. The moral
of our FIVE and thirty years of fair
ly continuous disaster ought not
longer to be ignored"

The Fruits of the Season.

1t may seem little premature to estl-
mate the result of this summers season at
Maine resorts, but sufficient data are at
hand to afford pretty accurate conclusions
We predicted at the opening of the sea-
son that this would in every way surpass
all others. That prediction has proved
true. The rush of summer visitors to Maine
this season has been unprecedented.
Every resort has felt the rush IN an I'M
accustomed manner. Poland Springs has
turned hundreds of guests away. Old
Orchard has seen every room filled. kenne'
bunk has been crowded with visitors. Port
land Harbor has been especially favored.
The mouth of the Kennebec, Castine, Fort
Point, Camden, Cutler, Campobello, and
Kineo have entertained many more than
usual. while Bar Harbor has most
emphatically experienced a popularity
that it never has enjoyed before. Nor 90
these places stand alone as the summer
homes of vast multitudes. Every village
10 the State has been filled with
guests. Franklin and Oxford county
towns have become favorite resorts Tor
those who especially delight in mountain
and lake scenery. Upon fair estimate
it can safely be asserted that the average
increase in the number OF summer visit
ors has been twenty-five per cent. Some
places claim an increase of even fifty per
cent. From this great army of tourists
has been taken for board and for all thos
things that have conduced to their pleasure
a large sum OF money. A gentleman IA
miliar with the subject places the sum at
above 100000. Others do not reckon
so high; the majority conclude that half
that sum is about the figure. But the har-
vest does not end with the acquisition of
this gain Hundreds of acres of land have
been solo, and many contracts for summer
cottages have been made. Beside. so
agreeable has the climate and the scenery
been to those here this year that they have
gone home, loud in the praises of the
State as place for spending the hot sum-
mer months. This kind OF advertisement
cannot failto prove valuable to all interest
ed in resorts. 1t insures greater numbers
and greater revenues for the future. But
the State has been benefited in other ways
than pecuniarily; its people have been
brought into contact with the best and
most cultivated citizens of other States
thereby reaping harvest of ideas and
thoughts which broaden and strengthen
the mind. The foreign world has in a
measure come to them, and has left its
impression. Financially and socially the
State has been greatly benefited, which
fact the remainder of the year will surely
attest.
